EsasisFs nlll want 70 know when and What
Il was. Il Is supposed 70 have been the
mentioning OF the Rev Geatleman's prom
inent nose. in describing tie appearances OF
the newly imported hsslth 0sfices A.

note.
The reporter Was sorry TO lesrn that he
had shocked me sense Of proprissy OF the
good people Of the Liberal Estormed
church. but when he discoyeTed that The
people OF other churches were not offended.
Dul on the contrary were rather pleased
with the references 10 the Dutch preacher.
be did not feel so badly about Il. Reporters
are expected TO write what the people like
10 read. and almost everybody likes 10 read
OF the personal peculiarities OF others II
they are not described malielously. There
WAS certainly nothing malicious or insoi-
ting IN the reference 10 Rev. Hagenh0ltk,
and but few people will hnd any founde-
lion for Nr. Van Dugterens complaint.
Ia reading Of preachers, as OF any class
OF people, IL makes a great difference
whose OK is gored." Now the people OF
the Liberal church would not be displessed
To see Il recorded that the reporters mlsirust
that Mrs. 4. X. Merriam writes her hus-
bands sermons. because when they get
bold Of his manuscript they are obliged TO
ask her 20 translate il for them; they would
not object 10 the statement that. for the
sake OF notorieiy or popularity, Rev. Or.
Campbell Fair tries 10 pick qusrrel With
the Irish; in fact reporters could wrlte
something Of nearly every minister in the
city, which would please the msmbers OF
every church except one.
For instance. Rey. X. r. TuDper Il pro-
nounced the most finished orator in the
city and is said he practices his gestures be-
| fore the mirror.
Rev. j. a Sprange's goodness is saied 10

| IL is said that Rev. X. q. Crawlord's bald
ness-in fact he admits twas caused
| by early deviltfy. Rev. Putfer
Is frequently alluded TO rs the Kid preach
er, because be is the youngest Of the lot.
| 1t IS said Of Rev. John Graham that be can
talk longer without sayir- anything. than
any other man on the job Rev. +. IA.
| Brooks raises lighting COCKS. or game chick
ems and says they are the most profitable
| for eggs. When Forepaughs show was
here, the boss" clown was mistaken for
| Rev. II. Z. Nelton by one Of the Rev. Gen
| tlemsn's most ardent admirers. The patrol
| men frequently mistake Rev. J. T.
Roberts for a takir or gambler and
watch for chance 10 run him in" Rev
| Ben Sargent is called the ladies' favorits
and Rev. Mosrdvk is considered "dndish.
| Rev. Il. X. Bennett is q hustler. and really
loves fast horse. Rev. J. w. III. Carlisle
has no great affection for work. but hs
likes to make Fourth of July speeches.
The Rev. Charles Fluhrer likes 10 have
| people think he is q great mechanic, O.
! least he goes abou. most of the time with 9
box of tools thinking perhaps that some
body VIII believe he is carpenter As vel
as joiner. and so on through the whole
list each mas personal characteristics. which
| although they may not like TO have them
pointed out, do not detract in the least from
| their usefulness as preachers.
